Epidemiology of Candida kefyr in patients with hematologic malignancies. [PDF]

J Clin Microbiol, 2014
ABSTRACT Candida kefyr is an emerging pathogen among patients with hematologic malignancies (HM). We performed a retrospective study at Johns Hopkins Hospital to evaluate the epidemiology of C. kefyr colonization and infection in HM patients between 2004 and 2010.

Target enzyme mutations confer differential echinocandin susceptibilities in Candida kefyr. [PDF]

Antimicrob Agents Chemother, 2014
ABSTRACT Candida kefyr is an increasingly reported pathogen in patients with hematologic malignancies. We studied a series of bloodstream isolates that exhibited reduced echinocandin susceptibilities (RES). Clinical and surveillance isolates were tested for susceptibilities to all three echinocandins, and those ...

Usefulness of Chromogenic Media in the Identification of Candida spp. Yeasts Compared to Mass Spectrometry [PDF]

Methods and Protocols
Yeasts of the Candida genus are part of the normal human microbiota but can cause infections (candidiasis) under certain conditions. While Candida albicans remains the most common etiological agent, the prevalence of non-albicans Candida species—such as ...

In vitro analysis of postbiotic antimicrobial activity against Candida Species in a minimal synthetic model simulating the gut mycobiota in obesity [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Gut fungal imbalances, particularly increased Candida spp., are linked to obesity. This study explored the potential of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum cell-free extracts (postbiotics) to modulate the growth of Candida albicans and Candida kefyr, key ...

Rapid emergence of echinocandin resistance during Candida kefyr fungemia treatment with caspofungin. [PDF]

Antimicrob Agents Chemother, 2013
ABSTRACT Echinocandin drugs are widely used for the treatment of candidemia. Resistance is considered rare, and only a few cases of breakthrough candidiasis in patients receiving echinocandin have been reported worldwide. We report here for the first time a Candida kefyr isolate that acquired echinocandin ...

A Cross-Sectional Study to Determine <i>Candida</i> spp. Carriage in Libyan Patients With Type 2 Diabetes. [PDF]

Biomed Res Int
The risk for Candida infections in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) is three times higher than in the general population. Despite a DM prevalence of 15.8% reported in Libya (2024), the laboratory identification and susceptibility testing of fungal infections in patients with DM are not routinely performed.

Antifungal Resistance of Candida spp. Isolates From HIV/AIDS Patients in Iran 1999-2024: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. [PDF]

J Clin Lab Anal
Antimicrobial resistance in Candida spp. is significant in individuals with HIV/AIDS infections, particularly in Iran. In this systematic review, a comprehensive systematic search was conducted to identify all the eligible studies between 1999 and 2024; the pooled resistance rates of Candida spp. against antimicrobial agents were estimated. The risk of
